Frequently Asked Questions

Brand Photography

What is Personal Brand Photography?

Personal brand photography is meant to highlight your business’s best asset; YOU. This type of session creates content that will connect you deeper to your audience by telling them what to provide, what you stand for, and what makes your services unique. It builds a brand around you, which allows you to pursue multiple endeavors and pivot your business at any point.

How is it different from a head shot?

Instead of stiff posing, these photos will feel more natural and relaxed. We can still take some head shots, but we will also show you in action. Maybe this is you at your desk, showing the process of how you create your service or hanging out on the couch with your pup. Check out my portfolio for more examples.

What’s the process like?

The first step is to send me a message! From here, we will set up a time to chat through video or in person to get to know each other and see if we are a good fit. If so, I’ll send over my questionnaire and we will dig into how we are going to lay out your images to make your brand shine. After we conceptualize your session, we will set a date and make it happen!

Where do we shoot?

Depending on how many pieces of your personal brand you want to share, the locations can vary! I do have a studio in North East Minneapolis that we can always use, but a lot of the time, taking photos at your office, your favorite spot around town, or your favorite coffee shop can be great as well.

Do you travel?

Yes!I live in Minneapolis, MN but LOVE traveling!Your location may even be on my bucket list.

How long does it take to get the images?

All images are delivered within 7 days. Additional edits can also be requested once your picks are made.

What if I'm really awkward in front of the camera?

Don’t worry! I totally get it and will put you at ease. I’m not going to spend hours posing you. I’m not going to just sit back and expect you to model. I’m going to give you something in between, real genuine moments created with a little bit of direction so you feel comfortable, like yourself, and look darn good too!

How do I get started?

Wedding Photography

What’s your style?

I would say my style is very comparable to Harry Potter. I like the vibe to be bright, natural, and fun. My colors are vibrant and true to the day. However, sometimes things can get a little dark, romantic, and of course, magical. If I've lost you- hold on - what I'm trying to say is that I love working outside and with natural light, so you get those happy, genuine moments between the two of you and your guests. But I also love playing with lights at night or in dark spaces to push the mood to an edgier place. I always bring my unicorn tote bag full of "tricks" and hold weird things like cd's, confetti, and pieces of glass up to my lens for magical effects.

How many weddings do you do a year?

I cap every season at 25 weddings to ensure each of my clients get the best experience from start to finish.

How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?

If you know your date, booking me ASAP is best. Most people book with me about a year out.

What’s your favorite kind of wedding to photograph?

I love weaving your natural environment into the photos. That being said, I’m a sucker for unique architecture. I love old mansions and libraries like the Gale Mansion or James J Hill. I love a true natural environment and love any type of outdoor wedding on the North Shore.

Should we have a second shooter?

With any of my collections, you can choose if you want just me, or if you want me to bring along one of my stellar friends. Two photographers allow you to have more than one perspective of your day. I highly recommend a second shooter if your ceremony and reception are at two separate locations.

How many hours is an average wedding day?

When booking me, I do not require you to know how many hours of photography or what collection you want right away. Instead, I help create a timeline for your wedding day photography so that you can relax and just be you- which makes for the best authentic photos. Most weddings I photograph are about 8 hours in length. This allows for getting ready photos but also a bit of the dancing.

How long does it take to get the photos?

4-8 weeks from your day, and they are delivered in a high-resolution image gallery. The link allows you to pass it along to your friends and loved ones to they can download and enjoy them as well if you so choose to share.

How much do you charge for a wedding?

Hit the get started button at the end of the page and I’ll send you my collections and what they include.

What if I'm really awkward in front of the camera?

Don’t worry! I totally get it and will put you at ease. I’m not going to spend hours posing you. I’m not going to just sit back and expect you to model. I’m going to give you something in between, real genuine moments created with a little bit of direction so you feel comfortable, like yourself, and look darn good too! If all else fails my funny cat jokes and random robot noises will bring a smile to your face.
